hi,
i'm on osx 10.4 intel with pd-0.39.2-extended-test7,
gem says "GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs", "GEM: compiled: Jan 5
2007".
the wrong colours appear equally when using TIFF
images. to which object should i send the colorspace
message? if i put it into [pix_movie], i get:
"error: pix_movieDarwin: no method for 'colorspace'".
interestingly, if i remove all the [pix_texture]
objects and use [pix_draw] instead, the colours are
displayed correctly (only i'm worried since the help
says pix_draw is very slow compared to pix_texture,
and i need to draw lots of CPU for audio later on).
also, if i use [pix_draw] instead of [pix_texture], i
am able to use [pix_mix] (doesn't work with
pix_texture?), so i can crossfade to a totally
transparent picture, which does almost the fade-in/out
i want. however, the pixel mixing is strange: the
image becomes white before it's faded out. that is,
pix_mix seems to to be assuming something like "alpha
premultiplied", like stolidly multiplying each channel
separately and not using alpha information for R/G/B
multiplication:

(you see the background of the text in the second
screen from the left has gotten white instead of
staying black ; this is the patch "gemTest2G.pd",
using this transparent image :

last not least, the images appear 180 degrees rotated
when using pix_draw instead of pix_texture (see also
Bild 3.png)
ciao, -sciss-
